Welcome back to the another edition of the (Re)staking Synopsis, your go-to source for the latest in Ethereum staking, presented by Chorus One.
Cutting right to the chase: EigenLayer now holds the second spot in Total Value Locked (TVL) for a protocol, boasting over $12.8 billion USD (~3.6 million ETH) restaked. Impressively, nearly 2 million ETH has been natively restaked via EigenPods, marking a significant surge in restaking activity.
Additionally, the EigenLayer and EigenDA Holesky Testnet is live and thriving, with a staggering total of 157,433.0897 ETH already restaked! After a seamless testing phase on Goerli, we're thrilled to support this new phase as we progress towards Mainnet operations.
With a meticulously crafted AVS strategy, we prioritize the safety of the funds delegated to Chorus One. Learn more about restaking with Chorus One: https://forum.eigenlayer.xyz/t/operators-mainnet-campaign/12828/145?u=chorusone
Without any further ado, let’s dive in.

OPUS Dedicated enables you to set up dedicated ETH validators, and directly restake your staked ETH with EigenLayer in a few clicks.
Note: At present, you can only deposit your staked ETH into EigenLayer; the option to delegate to Chorus One will be possible upon the EigenLayer Mainnet.
We will notify you once the delegation feature on EigenLayer becomes operational, indicating that it's time to delegate your restaked ETH. At that point, you will be able to delegate to Chorus One with just a few clicks.
How to restake ETH with EigenLayer

MEV-Boost targets the highest bid for Ethereum block space. However, a glitch arises when blocks include withdrawals, distorting the MEV valuation and making some bids appear more valuable than they really are, leading to losses for proposers.
Beyond individual losses, this issue has wider implications for the Ethereum ecosystem, inflating proposers' profits, cutting down overall transactions and gas usage, and consequently, decreasing ETH burning.
Our research team analysed the full impact of this bug, originally published on ETHResearch.
We explore how Ethereum's resilience is shaped by client diversity, offering an in-depth analysis of two of its most prominent Consensus Layer (CL) clients: Lighthouse and Teku.
